About this course
This vocational master’s degree will prepare you for a career in commercial archaeology. Through hands-on experience you’ll gain the skills to plan and run archaeological projects, from survey and excavation to analysis and reporting. You’ll apply your learning by spending 4 weeks on professional placement.
Your specialist archaeological practice learning will cover:
- processes and workflows of the heritage industry and commercial archaeology
- professional report writing
- statutory and local government systems for recording and protecting cultural heritage
- presentations and exhibitions
- how to design and manage archaeological projects
Beyond your specialist modules you can personalise this degree to your areas of interest.
This is a very practical degree. You’ll have full access to a wide range of dedicated facilities and specialist teachers to develop your practical skills. These include:
- a dedicated library
- a large collection of stone tools and hominin skulls
- specialist isotope labs and a scanning, imaging and micro-CT suite
- an extensive collection of human and animal skeletons
You can develop your practical skills further when you take part in a 3-day field trip to the West Devon and Cornwall World Heritage Site. Here you’ll conduct an environmental impact assessment using geographical information systems, computer-aided design and remote sensing.
We have relationships with a number of leading heritage institutions and companies. You’ll spend 4 weeks on placement with one of these institutions, where you’ll gain valuable real-world experience of the archaeology sector and heritage industry. Previous placements have included Historic England, Wessex Archaeology and The Nautical Archaeology Society.
In addition to your vocational training you'll develop advanced research skills. For your dissertation you’ll undertake original research on a topic that you choose. There's the possibility that this work will be published.
Southampton is close to the World Heritage sites of Stonehenge and Avebury and we have research projects engaged with both sites, as well as a range of other archaeological projects across the globe.
